Cinnamon-and-Raisin Muffins

Hello friends! Goodness it feels good to be back and writing. I decided to take the summer off from blogging to spend some much needed quality time with my family. But now with my oldest back in school and only one little guy at home with me now, I have been so antsy to get back in the swing of things. Breaks sure can be nice, gives the perfect recharge to the soul! And now I have a head FULL of recipes I cant wait to share with you all!

When Jackson gets home from school he is absolutely famished. A full day of school is hard work!! Baking gives me wonderful quality time with Little O and I love having special treats at home for when Jackson gets off the school bus. He is going to be thrilled to see one waiting for him on the kitchen table this afternoon!!

Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease or line with paper baking cups ten 2 3/4-inch muffin cups.

In a large bowl, blend together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, raisins, and salt. In a medium bowl, beat the sugar, egg, butter, and milk until smooth. Combine the two mixtures, blending until the dry ingredients are just moistened.

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a cake tester or wooden toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5-7 minutes. Serve warm, or invert onto the rack to cool completely.

Sit Down and Stay Awhile

My Retro Kitchen got its name with the idea that the art of a homecooked, sit-down family dinner is a thing of the past. It is a retro idea. I think it is one of the best things a person can give their family! This is a place where I chat about my cooking adventures, share recipes, review cookbooks and restaurants and really talk about anything food.
